    Hey guys, I feel like it has been for ever sense I posted anything. We had a f4 tornado come through our little town (Mena AR), I have been to busy to update you all on my rack & pinion.

       So in a nut shell, it ROCKS!!!!!! No pun intended the thing moves so fast I had to mount it to my back wall just to keep it from walking out the door!!! I am not complaining, though legacy calls it an upgrade, it really is what the the cnc version should have been all along!, if it seems like I am using exclamation points a bit much that should tell you something!!!!. Anyway, this thing has NO y carriage backlash, runs as smooth as a greased pig though a hungry village, holds .0003, and I have run a file with 75,000 lines of g-code and three bit changes without missing one step!!!!

     I ve done some cool (helpful) stuff to my legacy that I will post pics of soon.

    Yall have a great day

    Greg
